ENS 570033 March 2024 15:51:00The following information was provided by the licensee via email: At 1142 CST on 3/3/2024, with Unit 2 in Mode 1 at 29 percent power, the reactor automatically tripped due to a turbine trip caused by a loss of suction to the 22 main feedwater pump. All systems responded normally post trip. Decay heat is being removed via the auxiliary feedwater water system. Secondary steam control mechanism is the steam generator PORVs (power operated relief valves). Unit 1 remains at 100 percent power and is unaffected. This event is being reported pursuant to 10 CFR 50.72(b)(2)(iv)(B) and 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(iv)(A). The resident NRC inspector has been notified. The following additional information was obtained from the licensee in accordance with Headquarters Operations Officers Report Guidance: The trip occurred while the licensee was returning to power operations after a refueling outage. During the trip, all rods inserted into the core. The plant is in a normal shutdown electrical lineup with offsite power available. The plant will be maintained at normal operating temperature and pressure. There is no known primary to secondary leakage. The cause of the loss of 22 main feedwater pump suction is under investigation.
